Brandon Wittmeyer raised to 50,000 from UTG/hijack and Alex Foxen called in the big blind.

The flop was 7c6h3d, Foxen led out 35,000, Wittmeyer raised to 85,000, Foxen reraised to 185,000, and Wittmeyer called.

The turn was the Qs, Foxen bet 168,000, and Wittmeyer called.

The river was the 6d and Foxen used a time-extension before he bet 978,000, leaving about 20,000 behind.

Wittmeyer only had one time-extension left and used it before he called.

Foxen tabled 7h7s for sevens full of sixes, Wittmeyer showed Ac7s for two pair, sevens and sixes, and Foxen collected the hefty pot.
